Slow Down, Little Princess "the second bump"

let's continue...

2 days later ,in college morning rush...

She was already running late for class, and all the students were rushing through the hallway to get to their classes."

Aria walks fast, her brows furrowed, clutching her bag tightly to her chest. Her phone buzzes in one hand, and her earbuds are in, music blasting. She’s clearly irritated and running late.

Her heels click against the floor—she takes a sharp turn— CRASH! She slams into someone’s chest. Hard. Her phone falls. Her bag slips off her shoulder.

Aria

Ahhhh!! (snapping) Seriously?! AGAIN?!”

She rips out her earbuds and glares upward—her breath catches. Her eyes go wide. Her chest heaves.]

Standing right in front of her is the same guy. Tall. Black shirt. Jaw clenched. Eyes like cold steel.

zayden

(deadpan, not moving an inch): “You should ...wear a warning sign.”huh ... ?

[His voice is calm but sharp. His face stays still—only his left brow lifts with mocking amusement

Aria

( roll her eyes in irritation ) uk what...??

Aria

(steps back, scowling): “You should stop appearing in my way like a cursed shadow!”.. It's really annoying

Aria

Like... your attitude...(glares at him )

[She folds her arms tightly... Her lips twist in annoyance. Her heartbeat is racing, but she masks it with rage.]

zayden

(shrugs, voice low): “Maybe...you’re the one chasing. uk !!

[His lips twitch slightly, almost into a smirk. He tilts his head to the side.]

Aria

(eyes narrowing) “You wish. Last time I checked, I was running from bad luck.” (sharp voice while glaring at him) ..

zayden

(leans forward just slightly): “And yet here you are. ...Again.”???

[Their faces are now close. Tension crackles between them like static.... Neither moves. Neither looks away.]

Aria

Throws her hands up, voice rising): UGHHHHH!! YOU ARE—”

[She cuts herself off, grabs her bag roughly off the floor, and storms away, her hair swaying with every angry step.]

,📍 Scene: Classroom | Moments later.

[Aria slams into her seat near the middle of the class, still fuming. Her jaw is tight. She’s chewing the inside of her cheek.]

Zavea slides in beside her, arching a brow as she leans her chin into her hand.

zavea

(Teasing & smirking)“You look like.... you just got into a street fight.” huh..?

Aria

(not even looking at her): “Worse...!! Him. That guy from the rain. I swear he’s cursed..ah!!

[She exhales sharply, fingers drumming on the desk. Her eyes flick to the door.]

Then it happens—

The classroom door opens. Everyone looks. The professor walks in with papers in hand. Right behind him…

It was zayden...

He steps in slowly, hands tucked into his pockets. Calm. Confident. His expression is unreadable. His eyes scan the class — until they land on Aria

Her eyes go wide. Her body tenses. Fingers freeze mid-tap.

professor

(clearing his throat): “Class, meet our guest student for the semester. Mr.zayden.
